Finished Pikmin 1.

I took a day more than a guide and had to replay couple of days (including the last one) multiple times.

Overall, I love Pikmin and the idea of the game, but I didn’t enjoy the actual game too much, mainly because time limits in games always give me a bit of anxiety, and I had to follow a guide and keep worrying about making sure I am not taking too much time, instead of just enjoying the game.

I think I would try to play Pikmin 2 without guide, and if I fail, I fail. Will try to keep an eye on the limit, but just play as I can. Of course it’s possible I change my mind when I actually start it, but I think playing that way will be more enjoyable.

Played more God of War: Ragnarok.

Can’t say much without spoiling the game, but with Zelda coming out at the end of next week, will try to finish it over the weekend.

Started Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?.

It’s a side-scrolling platformer in the world of Disgaea. Played it a little bit but I am not sure about it yet, will need to play some more to make up my mind.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

    My experience with MIO got me thinking if I could still enjoy harder platforming games, so I ended up doing a replay of Celeste to test this.

    And yeah - that game still rocks. 1500+ deaths to finish the main story and at no point I got frustrated like I did with MIO. There’s a very important line between “hard” and “punishing” and Celeste is really well designed to never cross into the latter.

      Wow, how long did it take you to finish Celeste?

      I played it a bit, loved the gameplay, tough but not frustuating, but then I got stuck at a particular point. It was some reddish room and I couldn’t clear a particular section. Maybe it’s worth giving the game another try.

        Wow, how long did it take you to finish Celeste?

        ~6h or so for the base game. Not sure if I’ll try the post-game, but I unlocked most of the B-Sides during this playthrough.

        Maybe it’s worth giving the game another try.

        I think Celeste is more about figuring out the path through a specific room than extremely precise platforming, so if you’re stuck maybe check a video for that section?

        And if you’re still stuck after that you can always enable the assist to get past that spot.
